Kentucky Lake trip with Chaunc and the guys 5-11-16

Chaunc, his brother Rich, and their buddy Lenny were down for a few days this week. Chaunc missed his usually early April trip this year so I finally got to get them out for some crankbait action on KY Lake.

We started out slow except for Lenny. He was puttin a hurtin on the rest of us with a 16+inch sauger and a bunch of channel catfish that couldn't live without jumping on his John Deere green crankbait. It took the rest of us a while to get going but once we found the crappie, we had good action.

These guys are some of the best fishermen I have ever had to pleasure to sit in a boat with but I put them out of their comfort zone with the cranks for crappie. It didn't take long for them to catch on and it made for the most pleasurable day we could have hoped for. They are extended family.

I had to get Chaunc to show off one of my custom crankbaits. Most of the fish were caught on them but a couple fell to factory pattern Bandit 250s.
